FAQs
How long has the PV technology been around?
Solar energy has quite a fascinating history! The experiments with unlocking the infinite energy of the sun began around 200 years ago. Alexandre Edmond Becquerellar, a French physicist, was pioneered photovoltaic effect. In the 1840s, he extensively studied solar spectrum, magnetism and optics and found that photovoltaic reactions could produce an electric current in both liquids and metals.
What are the financial incentives I get to go solar?
While opting for green energy, you can utilize various state and federal financial incentives on solar power systems. Here are a few of the most exciting incentives:
What can I do to keep power during a blackout?
To gain energy independence from utility grids and bade goodbye to uncertainties around outages and blackouts, you can easily opt for our battery-backed solar power systems.
If I move to a new home, what happens to my solar power system?
If you have plans to move to a new home, you can take your solar electric system with you. However, it is usually advisable to leave it on the original house because it increases the resale value of a home.
What if I need to reroof my home?
In most cases, PV panels can be easily removed and reinstalled once the reroofing is complete. Besides, if the roof is a tar and gravel design, it may be possible to just tilt the panels up and re-tar and gravel.
